Rob,Ha! I know you're right Mike. It's not the bike that minds running at higher speeds, it's me!....
In fact the front wheel is a little out of sorts. Original and it was much worse last summer but had my local guy true it up as good as he could but still not perfect for higher speeds. I'm having a new set of wheels built for me right now with Buchannan Excel aluminum rims, ss spokes, new sealed bearings installed in the hubs, and Bridgestone Battlax rubber fitted. I'm confident that the ride will be much improved. Pretty excited too. Maybe I'll get up to 50mph!.....
You made a great choice having Buchanans do your wheels.They have been in business for decades and know all the proper offsets,etc.Plus their products are first rate. You will have a big smile when you open up the package!
